If we consider the team of Edmonton Royals, they have a couple of top-rated players like Du Plessis, Mohammad Hafeez, Ben Cutting and so on. So, as usual, they started dominantly but in just 1 run, opener Berrington was gone. Later, in the 2nd wicket partnership between captain Du Plessis and Dhaliwal, they added 78 runs. The 2nd wicket was Du Plessis who scored 55 runs in just 20 balls. He played destructive innings. He made eight boundaries and three over boundaries.
